Why could the mass of argon be greater than the mass of potassium even though it has a lower atomic number?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lesya [120]3 years ago
6 0

The mass given on the periodic table is the weighted average of the abundance of isotopes. Because heavier isotopes (more neutrons) of argon are more abundant than potassium's, by pure statistics, argon will appear with a greater mass on the periodic table.


in easy way

we can also say :- Argon has  greater proportions of heavier isotopes with more neutrons than potassium.

Cell theory states that all the living organisms are made up of basic structural and functional units, cells. All cells divide and give rise to new cells. All the cells have similar chemical composition. The nuclei acid DNA present in the chromosomes helps in carrying hereditary information from generation to generation. So, in order to sustain life the cells must contain DNA either enclosed in the nucleus or freely floating in the cytoplasm.

HOW IS PHENOTYPE DIFFERENT THAN GENOTYPE?
klio [65]

Answer: The genotype is the set of genes in our DNA which is responsible for a particular trait. The phenotype is the physical expression, or characteristics, of that trait. For example, two organisms that have even the minutest difference in their genes are said to have different genotypes.

Determine the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 0.198 g of "KHP" (C8H5O4K) in enough water to make 125 mL of solutio
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

0.007756M KHP; 0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts; 0.03488M NaOH.

Explanation:

Potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, is a salt used as standard to determine concentration of basic solutions as NaOH solutions.

To find molarity of the KHP solution we need to convert mass of KHP to moles and divide this in 125mL = 0.125L:

<em>Moles KHP -Molar mass: 204.22g/mol-:</em>

0.198g * (1mol / 204.22g) = 0.0009695 moles KHP

<em>Molarity:</em>

0.0009695 moles KHP / 0.125L = 0.007756M KHP

NaOH reacts with KHP as follows:

NaOH + KHP → Na⁺ + KP⁻ + H₂O

That means 1 mole of NaOH reacts per mole of KHP, that means moles of NaOH that reacts are = Moles of KHP added:

0.0009695 moles NaOH reacts

In 27.80mL = 0.02780L the NaOH was contained. Molarity is:

0.0009695 moles NaOH / 0.02780L =

0.03488M NaOH
